A trial run of an artistic collaboration that I'm working on with a friend.

Tonight's session was practice for an art event on Friday. Here are two of my favorites:

Photographing under black light gave the highest contrast, and best distinction between some of the colors. Photographing with a blue gel over the strobes gave us more light and sharper photos, and also more light on the skins. If I dialed my gelled speedlight down low in addition to the CF black lights, I could mix the two effects, dialing in how much skin I wanted visible.

A couple photos in the set show the results of another interesting project that I'm working on with another friend, where she is knitting fluorescent webbing into a net. I believe she actually used her arms for knitting needles on these two pieces, to get the very loose web.

It was a fun evening, and the technique shows some interesting promise.
